When Albert Ammons, Pete Johnson and Meade "Lux" Lewis performed in Carnegie Hall, it launched a national boogie woogie craze. Since then, music has never been the same. Jazz, blues, and rock and roll have all been influenced by boogie woogie. Yet very little is known about this art form, or the artists who took it to its pinnacle. This book fills that need.
With this book and basic piano skills, you can learn authentic, hard-rockin' boogie woogie in the style of the Boogie Woogie Trio.
This is the only book that:
- Contains everything you need to know to play, improvise, and composes dynamic, authentic boogie woogie piano, including explanations and exercises designed to ensure rapid progress.
- Remains absolutely faithful to the boogie woogie style as it was played at its pinnacle by its greatest exponents.
- Contains excerpts from some of the most important boogie woogie compositions (Pinetop's Boogie Woogie, Honky Tonk Train, Monday Struggle, Roll 'em Pete), and bass lines from many others, including Boogie Woogie Stomp.
